Muy bueno el video gracias chicos

1st time watching. Very informative. Thanks

Regardless of how many times they've repeated this same video throughout the years, the foreign legion is one of the best, plus they give some of these men a new chance at life after fkn up their younger selves. May god guide and lead and bless the legion.

RAF REG Gunners go to the Legion for further training and stay there for various periods of time. They come back to the UK, do their time at Colchester, return to unit and get promoted.

I don't know if the Legion makes you a man but a period of organized schedule and taking responsibility of your actions and the actions of your team is good for mental development of young people.

The quickest way to learn French is to join the legion!!

What are (typical) FFL NCO and officer career tracks? What are the retirement benefits? Drama is fine for civilians drooling on their shoes but professionals compare careers not memes. How does the FFL promotion rate compare with other serious armed forces? What percentage remain for a full career? Do a video on that and it will be flooded with views by potential applicants.

I hope that if the brown stuff hits the fan these guys are on my side.

Gaul is part of modern France so it's just what region of France they say he's from, just not translated very well. The rest is easy enough, France issues you with a passport and documents and voila, you're French for at least the next 5 years. It doesn't need to be permanent, you can go back to your old existence if you want at the end of the 5 years. Some do for various reasons, some don't.
